Updated specfile:

Updated SRPM:
http://dmalcolm.fedorapeople.org/python-packaging/gdb-heap-0.2-1.fc12.src.rpm

I've moved the bulk of the code to below _datadir

I spoke with the RH gdb experts; my understanding is that at present there
isn't a way to autoload a python script, except by placing it adjacent to
either a DSO that's loaded (with a -gdb.py extension), or the .debug file.

Unfortunately, placing it next to the DSO itself leads to noise from ldconfig
(see bug 562980), so placing it next to the .debug file (as done here) seems
like the best approach to me.

This also contains a number of bugfixes in the underlying tarball
